The Library of Mistakes is not a lending library and materials must not be removed from the premises.
The Library is now operating a system where we have set hours when the space is open and can be attended without booking. For other times, an appointment must be made within the following parameters.
We are a small library that hosts many events and visits. Please consult these pages before travelling as times are subject to change.
For bookings, please allow 72 hours for us to respond in order to open the library for your booked time.
